Working with USAID on a coffee revival programme aimed at smallholder communities. We have also set up independent buying stations and the infrastructure to be able to move the coffee internally to the point of export.

We have a startup export operation in Cameroon for both Arabica and Robusta coffees. We are working with the Fair Trade Foundation to recertify one particular co-operative group and to find a Fair Trade buyer for their coffee.

We have our own robusta milling and export operation in western Congo. This operation sources Kwilu coffees from the Bas Congo region and other grades from the north central Equatuer region.

Alongside the Gates Foundation funded Technoserve project, we are initiating relationships with smallholder co-operatives in Rwanda of which some are already FairTrade certified.
